Anger over pothole Nottinghamshire road that has become 'a crime scene'

Neighbours have called for action on a 'horrendous' Nottinghamshire road that has been labelled a 'crime scene' due to the amount of potholes covering it. Some living in Chesterfield Road, Huthwaite, even went as far as to describe the stretch of road as being like 'craters on the moon'.

Alan Lane, who was walking his dog named Honey down Chesterfield Road told Nottinghamshire Live that it’s no exaggeration to describe the road as horrendous. The 71 year old said: “It’s got to be a couple of years - it’s like a row of them.

“There seems to be just the width of the road, about 10 or 20 potholes. Just over the bridge, I know there’s a ban on lorries over seven and a half tons, a weight limit on the bridge. It can damage suspension, crack the windscreen. When you're on a push bike it can puncture your tyres not like a car with suspension. No mercy on a push bike. "
